The Fund uses an option writing strategy in which the Fund may sell covered calls or secured put options. Up to 75% of Fund assets may be invested in option writing. Options are subject to special risks and may not fully protect the Fund against declines in the value of its stocks. In addition, an option writing strategy limits the upside profit potential normally associated with stocks.

*The S&P 500 Index is a broad-based, unmanaged measurement of changes in stock market conditions based on the average of 500 widely held common stocks. The Bloomberg/EFFAS Index is a transparent benchmark for the total return of the 1-3 year U.S. Government bond market. Balanced Benchmark is a combined index, calculated by the Adviser, of which 40% reflects the S&P 500 Index (an unmanaged index of large companies with dividends reinvested) and 60% the Bloomberg/EFFAS U.S. Government 1-3 year Total Return Bond Index. One cannot invest directly in an Index.
**Periods less than one year are not annualized. Periods longer than one year are annualized Returns listed in the table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.
